Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03059224A1] Absorbent article of pants-like shape, such as incontinence pants, comprising an elastic waist portion, an absorbent element (5), and a liquid-impermeable outer layer (3) which is intended to enclose the absorbent element on at least that side thereof which faces away from the wearer during use of the article. Said elastic waist portion is made from an elastic first piece (1) which is essentially rectangular and is intended to form the rear portion (8) and side portions (9, 10) of the pants-like article. A second piece (2) forms the front portion (11) and crotch portion (12) of the pants-like article. Said second piece (2) is elongate, and the width thereof is, at least in the crotch portion (12), smaller than the length of the first piece (1). The absorbent element (5) is in its entirety arranged on the second piece (2). The liquid-impermeable outer layer (3) is breathable, at least over a portion of this which covers the absorbent element (5).
